Jared's Film

-

A film my son Jared made one afternoon for school, starring my youngest daughter Carenza. You get to see my house and garden too! I was half way through decorating the bathroom when he filmed this so didn't get the chance to tidy up, in fact I didn't even know he was filming until we watched it a few days later! Excuse the title, it must be teenage angst. ;)

Hi Jess, this is very cool. Your children are really talented and your daughter is so adorable. As he was moving the camera through the house, you know I was thinking about the place where we lived (although it was a cottage and not a large house). The English details were heartwarming for me. I love the garden and the lovely windows a lot...not to mention all of the color.

Thanks Jess!

Thanks Kim, the cottage where you stayed must have been lovely! I wasn't aware my house looks english, I expect we get used to it and don't see it through other's eyes!

Thanks Ruthie, hope your sholder feels better soon :)

Thanks Rosie, Carenza was a willing participant I must say!

More Cottages During Lockdown and a Change in Medium.

I've been thinking about why I'm drawing cottages lately.  Maybe it's because there aren't many people around where we live and on our daily walks we rarely come across anyone else which I suppose is a good thing as we're still in Lockdown and have to practice Social Distancing which has now become a very well used phrase in our language! Maybe it's this lack of seeing people around that my mind is turning towards houses and flowers? The ones above are done in ink. I love the pearlescent inks, they're so beautiful when they catch the light. The paintings above and below are painted in acrylic. I've been obsessed with watercolour for a few weeks but I felt I'd like to get some acrylics out again. I've always been like this, going through phases of being obsessed with a particular medium thinking yes this is it! This is my final medium and then finding myself being drawn to changing once again to a different way of wor...
